Presented in bright red with a black vinyl top and matching interior, this Chevrolet Chevelle is equipped with the ground-pounding, torque-heavy 396 CI V-8 engine with 4-barrel carburetor and dual exhaust. Topped with an Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, the Chevelle has an automatic transmission and 12-bolt rear end. Interestingly, this Chevelle maintains a quiet, conservative demeanor; the badges, cowl hood and wheels are the only indicators of the performance capabilities of this Chevelle. Drivers will love the power steering and the power brakes with front discs, while the split-back bench seat and column-mounted shifter again call back to that conservative feel taking people's minds off the performance potential this beast holds. A Jensen cassette stereo keeps the tunes rolling and a Be Cool Radiator keeps the big engine cool. Presenting very well, this Chevelle is unique in so many regards, blending high performance with a relatively quiet appearance, it is one of those cars that will have people wondering exactly what it is. Simply put, it's a big-block Chevelle. In 1969, Chevrolet marketed the Chevelle as America's Most Popular Mid-Size Car, and they weren't far off. Based on the Malibu body and platform, these cars were available from thrifty to gargantuan and were also available in a multitude of body styles from wagons to sedans to convertibles to coupes?even the El Camino used many elements of the Malibu-Chevelle line. For the price, customers were hard pressed to find a better-equipped car, especially in the performance segment with various drivetrain options available. A great car for 4-passenger cruising, a Chevelle will prove a fun, enjoyable car to own.
